Red Cliff Campground sits in Gallatin Canyon on the Bozeman Ranger District of the Custer Gallatin National Forest in Montana, managed by the Forest Service. It lies about 46 miles north of Bozeman and 45 miles south of West Yellowstone, right next to the Gallatin River and Highway 191. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Big Sky show July highs around 78°F with lows near 41°F, while winter highs stay in the 20s and 30s. Vault toilets are the only amenity at the campground, and a fee is charged for stays. The climbing areas of Red Cliff Campground, Main Cliff and Energy Wall all lie within half a mile, and the Elk Horn hike is about a mile away.
